The Guiding Principles of the San Clemente Nation Indian
Guides
The Purpose
To foster understanding and companionship between father
and son, while having fun and making new friends.
"Pals Forever,"
The slogan, does not mean that father and son relate to
each other as equals, such as two boys who are pals. Rather, it means that
father and son have a close, enduring relationship while there is
communication, understanding, and companionship. The Y-Guides program
encourages such a relationship by providing a means for father and son to
share enjoyable experiences, to observe and learn about one another, and to
develop mutual respect.
The Aims
To be clean in body and pure in heart, To be pals forever
with my father and son, To love the sacred circle of my family, To listen
while others speak, To love my neighbor as myself, To seek and preserve the
beauty of the Great Spirit's work in forest, field, and ocean.
Pledge
"We, father and son, through friendly service to each
other, to our family, to this tribe, and to our community, seek a world
pleasing to the eye of the Great Spirit."
